National Mission on Oilseeds and Oil Palm (NMOOP)
Operational Guidelines
1.
INTRODUCTION :
India is one of the major oilseeds grower and importer of edible oils. Indias
vegetable oil economy is worlds fourth largest after USA, China & Brazil. The
oilseed accounts for 13% of the Gross Cropped Area, 3% of the Gross National
Product and 10% value of all agricultural commodities. This sector has recorded
annual growth rate of area, production and yield @ 2.44%, 5.47% and 2.96%
respectively during last decade (1999-2009).
The diverse agro-ecological conditions in the country are favourable for
growing 9 annual oilseed crops, which include 7 edible oilseeds (groundnut, rapeseed
& mustard, soybean, sunflower, sesame, safflower and niger) and two non-edible
oilseeds (castor and linseed). Oilseeds cultivation is undertaken across the country in
about 27 million hectares mainly on marginal lands, of which 72% is confined to
rainfed farming.
During the last few years, the domestic consumption of edible oils has
increased substantially and has touched the level of 18.90 million tonnes in 2011-12
and is likely to increase further. With per capita consumption of vegetable oils at the
rate of 16 kg/year/person for a projected population of 1276 million, the total
vegetable oils demand is likely to touch 20.4 million tonnes by 2017.
A substantial portion of our requirement of edible oil is met through import of
palm oil from Indonesia and Malaysia.
It is, therefore, necessary to exploit domestic resources to maximize
production to ensure edible oil security for the country. Oil Palm is comparatively a
new crop in India and is the highest vegetable oil yielding perennial crop. With
quality planting materials, irrigation and proper management, there is potential of
achieving 20-30 MT Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFBs) per ha after attaining the age of 5
years. Therefore, there is an urgent need to intensify efforts for area expansion under
oil palm to enhance palm oil production in the country.
Tree Borne Oilseeds (TBOs), like sal, mahua, simarouba, kokum, olive,
karanja, jatropha, neem, jojoba, cheura, wild apricot, walnut, tung etc. are
Page 1 of 55
cultivated/grown in the country under different agro-climatic conditions in a scattered

form in forest and non-forest areas as well as in waste land /deserts/hilly areas. These
TBOs are also good source of vegetable oil and therefore need to be supported for
cultivation.
2. MISSION TARGETS:
National Mission on Oilseeds and Oil Palm (NMOOP) envisages increase in
production of vegetable oils sourced from oilseeds, oil palm and TBOs from 7.06
million tonnes (average of 2007-08 to 2011-12) to 9.51 million tonnes by the end of
Twelfth Plan (2016-17). The Mission is proposed to be implemented through three
Mini Missions with specific target as detailed below:
Mini Mission (MM)
Target of 12th Plan
MM I on Oilseeds
Achieve production of 35.51 million tones and productivity
of 1328 kg/ha of oilseeds from the present average
production & productivity of 28.93 million tonnes and
1081 kg/ha during the 11th Plan period respectively.
MM II on Oil Palm
Bring additional 1.25 lakh hectare area under oil palm

cultivation through area expansion approach in the States
including utilization of wastelands with increase in
productivity of fresh fruit brunches (FFBs) from 4927 kg
per ha to 15000 kg per ha.
MM III on TBOs
Enhance seed collection of TBOs from 9 lakh tonnes to 14

lakh tonnes and to augment elite planting materials for area
expansion under waste land.
3. STRATEGY:
The strategy to implement the proposed Mission will include increasing Seed
Replacement Ratio (SRR) with focus on Varietal Replacement; increasing irrigation
coverage under oilseeds from 26% to 36%; diversification of area from low yielding
cereals crops
to oilseeds crops; inter-cropping of oilseeds with cereals/ pulses/
sugarcane; use of fallow land after paddy /potato cultivation; expansion of cultivation
of Oil Palm & TBOs in watersheds and wastelands; increasing availability of quality
planting materials of Oil Palm & TBOs; enhancing procurement of oilseeds and
collection & processing of TBOs. Inter cropping during gestation period of oil palm
and TBOs would provide economic return to the farmers when there is no production.
The scheme would be implemented in a mission mode through active involvement of
Page 2 of 55
all the stakeholders. Fund flow would be monitored to ensure that benefit of the
Mission reaches the targeted beneficiaries in time to achieve the targeted results.
4. FUNDING PATTERN & FUND FLOW:
Cost of the interventions proposed under the Mission will be in the ratio of
75:25 between the Central and the State Governments, except in case of few ongoing
interventions like, purchase of Breeder seeds, supply of seed minikits, infrastructure
development for seed production through Public Sector agencies like NSC, SFCI,
SAUs including KVKs, for FLDs, procurement support to NAFED, TRIFED; R&D
support for ongoing research projects. Upto 1% of the funds allocated under the
Mission will be earmarked at national and state level to meet the contingency
expenditure including engagement of contractual manpower for monitoring of
implementation of the Mission.
The funds will be released to the Departments of Agriculture/Horticulture of
the State Governments.
As far as possible, electronic banking will be used for
transfer of funds to the State /Agencies. The private sectors and NGOs could be
involved through the State Departments of Agriculture and Horticulture only. The
Government of India will release the funds to the agencies for the direct funded
components/activities at Central level. The State Govt. will be responsible for release
of 25% share of the allocation annually in the beginning of the financial year. The
oilseeds and oil palm development programme of ISOPOM alongwith liability of
ISOPOM and tree borne oilseeds development programme for the approved
programme will be subsumed under the Mission. The oilseeds development
components of MMA stand discontinued in the States of Assam, Jammu & Kashmir,
Jharkhand, Tripura and Nagaland with the launch of NMOOP. No permanent posts
will be created by the Central or the State Governments under NMOOP.
Past experiences reveal that most of the State Governments held up the
allocated/released funds of the Governments of India, besides, non-accordance of
sanction for the States matching share. Delayed/not issuing of States contribution
well before each sowing season hamper implementation of the programme. States
would, therefore, ensure issue of States sanction including release of State matching
share in time. Inordinate delay/non-utilization of budget may result in non-release of
Central share and also diversion of the same to the other performing States.
As per the guidelines of Ministry of Finance, 10% of the Plan budget of
NMOOP would be earmarked as flexi-fund to meet the following objective:
Page 3 of 55
(i)
To provide flexibility to States to meet local needs and requirement within the
overall objective of NMOOP;
(ii)
To pilot innovations and improved efficiency within the overall objective of

the Scheme and its expected outcomes;
(iii)
To undertake mitigation/restoration activities in case of natural calamities in

the oilseeds sector.
Release of flexi-funds would be made on a pro-rata basis along with normal
releases of NMOOP. In other words, no separate system for release or for utilization
certificate for flexi-funds would be required. Flexi funds will be subject to same audit
requirements as the NMOOP including audit by the Comptroller & Auditor General
of India (CAG).
Outcomes and outputs need to be part of MIS alongwith
pictures/images and good practices to ensure greater transparency and cross learning
across States. Evaluation of flexi-funds would be done through the proposed
evaluation process of NMOOP.

8
MONITORING, REPORTING & EVALUATION:
8.1
Monitoring : National Level Monitoring Teams (NALMOTs) comprising of
the technical officers from Department/Crop Development Directorates (CDDs),

States Department of Agriculture/Horticulture & the scientists of ICAR/SAUs
including retired scientists with specialization in the crops concerned would be
constituted under the Mission for monitoring of the Mission activities at the field
level. The progress of implementation would also be reviewed by the senior officers
of the Department during their visits to the states. The overall progress of
implementation would be reviewed regularly by the Mission Monitoring Committee.
The Standing Committee (SC) and Executive Committee (EC) of the Mission would
be apprised of the outcome of the monitoring activities for taking necessary corrective
measures, if any. The States would constitute State Level Monitoring Team
(SALMOT) at the state level and Project Management Team (PMT) at the district
level. The Technical Support Groups would be actively involved in monitoring
activities both at National & States level. Monitoring of implementation of the
Mission should be as frequent as possible, both at the field level and also through
video conferencing.
The Concurrent, Mid-term and Plan End Impact evaluation of the Mission will be
undertaken at National level through an agency appointed by GOI. Besides the State
Government would also undertake concurrent & impact assessment on year to year
basis. A baseline survey will be conducted by the States Department of Economic &
Page 9 of 55
Statistics to ascertain the productivity level of oilseeds prior to implementation of

NMOOP. The State Mission Director will also conduct a base line survey in respect
of oil palm for productivity of FFB of oil palm at farmers field.
8.2
Reporting System: Information Technology tools developed in collaboration
with NIC will be used for monitoring and evaluation of the Mission. States will
compile & furnish the physical and financial status on implementation of the Mission
through a Web-enabled Monitoring System. The State Mission Director will be
responsible for reporting the progress of implementation of the Mission.
The States will be allowed to dovetail the resources of other programmes of

GOI, wherever required to supplement the efforts of NMOOP. The
approved/existing committed liability arising out of implementation of
ongoing schemes on oilseeds, oil palm and TBOs will be taken over by
NMOOP except the liability of the staff. However, in future, implementing
agencies would be required to undertake activities only within the allocations
approved by GOI & corresponding State share. No claim relating to
expenditure over and above approved allocation funds would be entertained in
DAC.
Under MM-I on Oilseeds, flexibility will given to the States for inter
component diversion of funds up to 20% except seeds components. Inter
Component changes in the approved AAPs of the states under MM-II on Oil
Palm can only be allowed with the approval of SC of NMOOP.
A minimum of 25% of the funds allocated for implementation of beneficiary

oriented components viz. planting material, demonstration, training, supply of
farm implements including sprinkler/drip irrigation will be earmarked by the
State Government for the utilization of the farmers belonging to Schedule
Caste (17%) and Schedule Tribe (8%). However, allocation to SC/ST farmers
may be made proportionate to their population in the districts by the States.
The States will be allowed to cover local initiatives, if any, which may be
crucial and not covered as an intervention under NMOOP. The State may
include such interventions with subsidy not more than 50% of the cost of the
item/services within 1% allocation of AAP under each Mini-Mission per year.
8.3
Evaluation: A baseline survey will be conducted by the States Mission
Directors to ascertain the productivity level of oilseeds under MM-I. Under MM-II, a
Page 10 of 55
baseline survey for the productivity of oil palm at farmers field in each block already
harvesting FFBs from earlier plantations will be conducted. Similarly benchmark
survey will be made under MM-III for current area and production of TBOs/oils. The
respective State Governments will undertake concurrent evaluation on year-to-year
basis and the Government of India will undertake a mid-term evaluation at the
national level through an independent agency/organization after the 3rd year of
implementation of the Mission to assess performance and shortcomings so as to take
remedial measures, if any, in the method of implementation. An impact evaluation at
the national level will also be undertaken through an independent agency to assess the
impact of the mission in increasing the productivity of oilseeds crops under MM-I &
overall development under MM-II and MM-III by the end of the Twelfth Plan Period.
9.
MISSION INTERVENTIONS:
All interventions suitable for integrated farming system depending on the
climatic conditions and natural resource base for optimizing farm returns in a
sustainable manner have been included under NMOOP. The Mission imbibes the
inputs delivery of existing programmes on oilseeds and oil palm and also restructures
the interventions by inclusion/deletion and rationalizing the subsidy thereon. The
components under Mini Mission-I on Oilseeds, Mini Mission-II on Oil Palm and Mini
Mission-III on Tree Borne Oilseeds (TBOs) are described separately.
9.1
Mini Mission-I (MM-I) on Oilseeds:

The components of the Annual Action Plan (AAP) under MM-I on Oilseeds
will be classified broadly in three categories namely Seed Components, Production

Components and Transfer of Technology. The illustrative expenditure thereon is as
under:
9.1.1 Seed Components:
Production of seed is time-consuming, cost intensive and risky under rainfed

conditions in which oilseeds are grown. The planning for anticipated requirement of
Breeder seeds is done in advance to produce Foundation and Certified seeds in
subsequent generations. Therefore, the chain of the quality seeds production begins
from Breeders seeds. The high seed volume crops of groundnut and soybean need
strategic planning for Breeder seeds production to meet the certified seed
requirements. The Central Seed Producing Agencies can also produce the Foundation
and Certified seeds in the states, which are not covered under the Mission. The
Page 11 of 55
popularity of hybrids seeds in sunflower, castor and safflower also require

maintenance of parental material and special techniques for hybrids seed production.
9.1.1.2. Purchase of Breeders seeds / parental lines (hybrid seed)
ICAR is the nodal agency for the production of Breeder seeds of oilseeds. The
ongoing support for Breeder seed production to ICAR has been discontinued from
2013-14. However, the financial liability accrued on the breeder seed production
under ISOPOM upto Eleventh Plan would be considered under the Mission. The
breeder seeds are produced by the breeders of the organizations such as
ICAR/SAUs/KVKs etc. The Mission will reimburse 100% cost of production of the
Breeder seeds/parental lines to Central Seed Producing Agencies at the Government
of India level. Department of Agriculture of the State Government will however,
reimburse 100% cost of Breeder seeds as per cost norms mentioned in Annexure I (a),
for the approved targets included under AAPs of the states, to the agencies like
SAUs/KVKs/State Seed Corporation/ Federations etc.
9.1.1.3. Production of Foundation and Certified seeds
Subsidy assistance will be provided limited to Rs. 1000/quintal for all
varieties/hybrids released during the last 10 years with additional assistance of

Rs.100/qtl on the varieties/hybrids released in the last 5 years. 75% of the subsidy
amount is meant for farmers and 25% for the seed producing agencies for meeting
expenditure towards certification & production etc. The support will be provided to i)
States Department of Agriculture (SDAs)/ State Seeds Corporations (SSCs) at State
level under AAP of the State and to ii) NSC/SFCI/NAFED/KRIBHCO/ IFFCO /
IFFDC/Central Multi-State Cooperatives such as NCCF/ Hindustan Insecticides
Limited (HIL) or other agency approved by the Executive Committee as central nodal
agency at national level, based on the approved Plan for these agencies at Central
level. The support for particular variety/hybrids may be decided by Standing
Committee of the Mission.
9.1.1.4 Distribution of Certified Seeds
Assistance @50% of the cost limited to Rs.1200/- per quintal for varieties of
oilseeds not older than 10 years. For hybrids, assistance for distribution of certified
hybrids seeds @ 50% of the cost limited to Rs. 2500/- per quintal for hybrids of
oilseeds not older than 10 years. The support will be provided to i) SDAs / SSCs at
State level under AAP of the State and to ii) NSC / SFCI / NAFED / KRIBHCO /
Page 12 of 55
IFFCO/IFFDC/ HIL / Central Multi-State Cooperatives such as NCCF based on the

approved Plan for these agencies at Central level. The support for particular
variety/hybrids may be decided by SC of the Mission. SHGs/ FIGs/FPOs/Women
groups/Co-operatives etc. could also be involved by the States in distribution of
Certified Seeds. Subsidized Certified Seed distribution should be done only through
own outlets/dealers of Nodal Agencies subject to a ceiling of 5 ha area per farmer for
all crops of oilseeds.
Subsidy assistance would be available to only such organizations and for such
varieties/hybrids whose production, certification and availability is ensured through
the website of DAC.
9.1.1.5. Distribution of Minikit (Varietal Diversification)
Minikits are meant for introduction and popularization of latest released/pre-
released varieties/hybrids not older than 10 years among the farmers free of cost.
NSC/SFCI/NAFED/KRIBHCO/IFFCO/IFFDC/HIL/Central Multi-State Cooperatives
such as NCCF/SSCs etc., will be involved in supply of minikits at national level.
Allocation will be made @ one minikit for every 20 Ha area under each crop
containing 20 kg seed for groundnut, 8 kg seed for soybean, 2 kg seed of each
rapeseed & mustard, sunflower, safflower, linseed, castor and one kg seed each of
sesame and niger. The price of seed minikits will be fixed by the Mission Monitoring
Committee of NMOOP at National level and 100 % cost would be reimbursed to the
agencies on certification of receipt by the state. The allocation of seed minikits will
be
decided
by
the
Standing
Committee
before
commencement
of
Kharif/Rabi/Summer seasons.
9.1.1.6 Seed Infrastructure Development
Assistance upto 50% for creation of seed infrastructure including threshing

floor, seed storage godowns with the provision for de-humidification, irrigation
facilities including tube wells/bore wells, motor pumps, sprinklers, excluding drip,
lining of channels, levelling of fields, fencing on the farms, electrification of office
building, farm machinery etc at State Government/State Seed Corporation (SSC)
farms engaged in seeds/planting material production for the Mission crops and upto
75 % GOI support for farms of NSC/SFCI and 100 % for SAUs/KVKs under Mini
Mission-I on Oilseeds. The support for already approved seed infrastructure projects
to States/Agencies under ISOPOM during Eleventh Plan period will be continued
Page 13 of 55
under the Mission. Maximum of 1% of total outlay under the Mini Mission-I of
NMOOP for the entire Twelfth Plan period will be utilized for this intervention. The
seed infrastructure development proposals of Department of Agriculture of the State
Government must be sent by the respective Mission Directors to DAC separately
supported by estimates and construction plans as per the latest schedule of rates of
State PWD. This component will not be implemented without the prior and specific
approval of the Standing Committee of NMOOP.
9.1.1.7 Variety Specific Targeted Seed Production (VSTSP)
In order to ensure availability of quality seeds of a particularly variety of
oilseeds for large area cultivation the seeds are required to be multiplied on large scale
for distribution to the farmers. Therefore, a provision has been made to undertake
seed production of varieties/hybrids not older than 5 years under VSTSP component
of the Mission. The production of hybrids on large scale could also be taken provided
sufficient parental material is available. VSTSP will provide 75% support to
NSC/SFCI/selected SSCs/State Government Agencies/ICAR/SAU and KVK farms
etc in a project mode. The certified seed produced under VSTSP will be utilized under
Distribution of Seed Minikit component through the Departments of Agriculture of
the State Government for distribution to the farmers.
9.1.2
Production Inputs:
The support for other non-seed components input will be provided to the farmers
through the Department of Agriculture of the State Governments.

large number of farmers can see live demonstration of IPM and various other
technologies. FFS is a season long programme to impart training to the farmers on
one pre-determined/fixed day in a week throughout the season in various aspects of
production & protection technologies. 30 oilseeds cultivating farmers including local
field staff from the village will be selected as trainees. FFS training is field oriented
discovery based, learning by doing & participatory management. FFS is a "learning
field" where farmers conduct experiments & comparison trials. The training
curriculum will be based on local needs. FFS will be conducted in the morning and
for about 4-5 hours. The total number of sessions in a season will be fourteen (14).
Agro-Eco-System Analysis (AESA) is one of the main FFS activity, through which
farmers make crop management decision. At the end of FFS, farmers are expected to
grow healthy crop by conserving natural pest enemies of crop and become experts in
taking right crop management decisions in IPM. FFS will be conducted under the
supervision of Technical staff of the Department of Agriculture of the State
Government. A separate manual of FFS will be developed by the Department of
Agriculture for each of the oilseeds crops so that uniformity can be maintained across
the country. Maximum of 1 FFS on 1000 hectare of a crop area will be organized by
